  • LN882HKI module with labeled pins.
    This is a teardown GU10 RGBCW Bulb with new VERY tiny LN882HKI module, which I've never seen before. Obviously, this device is also supported by OpenBeken, so you can free it from the cloud and use with Home Assistant. Here are the details...

    Device can be bought here:
    https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005881188...o.order_list.order_list_main.4.4e951802GSrd1g

    Pin connections for LOG
    VCC <- 3V3
    GND <- GND
    B8 (TX1) -> RX (log is using baudrate 921600)

    Pin connections for backup and flash
    VCC <- 3V3
    GND <- GND
    A3 (RX0) <- TX
    A2 (TX0) -> RX
    A9 -> GND

    Backup was done using
    LN882H_Flash_Dumper.py COM3 backup 0x0200000
    It took about 10 minutes, but the dump is fine

    Upload was done (of course after power off/on module to activate bootmode) using:
    LN882H_CMD_Tool COM3 download flash 2000000 0x0 OpenLN882H_1.17.586.bin
    It took about only 4 seconds - but no error and everything seems to be ok

    Just to be sure, I've used baudrate 115200
    LN882H_CMD_Tool COM3 download flash 115200 0x0 OpenLN882H_1.17.586.bin
    It took about 60 seconds now

    After restarting the module
    - on TX1 is there something like "start console ok...."
    - on TX0 is there OBK std output...

    Next step was to set WiFi using std. procedure over OBK AP (192.168.4.x)

    I had problems with the WiFi connection, because the antenna is on the power supply board, and I flashed it as just the module itself (meaning without the antenna). I had to put the module close (1m) to the WiFi AP to make it working. After soldering module later back into the power supply board, the WiFi worked normally.

    Bulb has just two active pins to rule the BP5758.
    I've discovered this:
    A0 - BP5758D_CLK
    A1 - BP5758D_DAT

    Last thing was to change color map, because red was blue a blue was red.
    I've added OBK Startup command to solve it:
    BP5758D_Map 2 1 0 3 4

    JSON:
    Code: JSON
    Log in, to see the code


    Everything OK, the bulb is working OK. The only strange thing is, that the internal temperature (on OBK module web status) is over 100°C, when the light is on.

    Thank you for sharing. The used module seems similiar to CBLC5. Maybe it's an LN882HKI version of that?
    Here is original CBLC5:

    I agree, it looks like. Its pinout compatible. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything on the module, what would appear to be a type. There is only a date on the QR code - 202401090239F. I couldn't even find similar anywhere on the net (LN882).

    Another bulb using same module is here https://www.elektroda.com/rtvforum/topic4037269.html by gregmarfaing

    Added after 1 [minutes]:

    Strange behavior:
    The module displays a high temperature even when the light is off. After 5 minutes the OBK shows an internal temperature of about 65°C and stay within that range - it's not OK, it should be much lower.
    After turning on, the temperature raises to 105°C in 3 minutes, and after a next few minutes it stop responding to requests. The bulb continues to glow as it was set.

    There are few things that can be done to reduce the heating of your module:
    - first of all, you can enable PowerSave 1 in short startup command or in (if supported) LittleFS file autoexec.bat
    - then you can also tune the currents of BP5758 driver, maybe factory settings were using a lower current limit? Look up the command BP5758D_Current in our documentation
    - finally, keep in mind that all those modern LED bulbs are designed in such a way that overheating is expected, they do it to shorten the lifespan of the LEDs. I think you can easily benefit by just slightly lowering the drive current below the threshold set by the manufacturer. That way your LEDs will really be able to last longer.

    The high temperature is a known problem, the module itself gets quite hot, the surrounding (especially with heating LEDs) will make it even hotter.
    You probably should try if powerSave 2 is an option for you, maybe first try as user command.
    It should reduce the temperature significantly, but makes WiFi a bit unsteady.
    But a sometimes slow WiFi is probably better than no WiFi...

    I've got 6 of those fxpot GU10 bulbs, for about $1.5 each. Except that they are bluetooth versions (AK801 mcu?), but otherwise are identical. I've replaced the modules with ESP8684-WROOM-07, each for about $1.1. Ultimately, the resulting mod ended up costing less than if I had bought the Wi-Fi version specifically.

    >>21204763 Bigger? I haven't noticed. It is the same form-factor, as CBLC5/WBLC5.
    According to espressif datasheet, dimensions are the same.
